Some people think #antinatalism is nihilism. It's actually the opposite. Nihilism says nothing matters or has meaning. Antinatalism says suffering matters and the meaning of existence is to minimize suffering. Nihilists don't care. ANs care very deeply.

I don’t agree with this at all. I’m an existential nihilist and an antinatalist. My reasoning for not wanting to bring life into this earth is because it’s meaningless. And a meaningless life can lead to suffering. See “Birth of Tragedy” - Friedrich Nietzsche

I think you are something other than a nihilist. You are implying that a "meaningless life" is a bad thing, therefore, you choose not to procreate. In nihilism, there is no moral value system of good or bad. Nihilists don't care if people procreate or not
